LVFS says there is a firmware update for my Logitech Unifying Receiver, RQR12.10_B0032 uploaded 2019-9-19 and rated high urgency.

Gnome Software does not find any firmware updates but running fwupdmgr get-devices returns:

Unifying Receiver

  Summary:              A miniaturised USB wireless receiver

I believe I saw firmware version RQR12.09_B0030 firmware discussed in a 2017 thread somewhere.

Running either fwupdmgr get-updates or fwpudmgr update returns:

No releases found for device: Not compatible with bootloader version:              failed predicate [BOT01.0[0-3]_* regex BOT01.04_B0016]

Operating system is Ubuntu 19.10. I do not understand what bootloader is referenced in the message.

In the LVFS Security notes for RQR12.10_B0032 it states, "Firmware cannot be verified after flashing." Does this mean the firmware upgrade won't show up even if it has occurred?

I've been using linux for a dozen years. I am comfortable using the Terminal if instructions are clear. If there is a recommended cure, please keep it simple for me.

PS: I have reviewed the May 2018 thread labeled Can't upgrade Logitech unify Firmware using fwupd but my scenario seems very different in every way.

Here is an official workaround https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/wiki/LVFS-Triaged-Issue:-Logitech-Restart-Failure

so I updated it using following script (cannot do that manually because after the first fail mouse and keyboard disconnects) 

#!/bin/bash

fwupdmgr update
sleep 5
fwupdmgr update
